Research on the Shear Performance of Undulating Jointed Rammed Earth Walls with Comparative Tests
In this study, we analyze the seismic damage characteristics and construction mechanisms of Rammed Earth(RE) walls. The results reveal that the horizontal joints in RE walls significantly weaken their resistance to horizontal seismic actions. To mitigate this, three types of undulating joints are proposed and six specimens tested.
